Everything is coming up roses for country singer Luke Bryan, and the dad-of-two says he knows it.

“It’s fun being me,” he admits to Country Weekly. “To have my family growing and songs going No. 1, you have to step back and take a second and appreciate what’s going on.”

When Bryan, 34, does just that family comes first — for what tops his list is longtime love Caroline and the couple’s sons Thomas ‘Bo’ Boyer, 2½, and Tatum Christopher, 7 weeks.

“I’ve got two healthy kids and a beautiful wife,” he points out. “To have the career rockin’ is fun.”

Expectant mom Alana de la Garza is quickly learning that you really can have too much of a good thing!

Husband Michael Roberts earns high marks from the former Law & Order star for his late-night dashes to the grocery store — whipping up a protein-rich meal of steak and spinach after she recently felt woozy — but every woman has her limits!

“[He is] almost too present,” she concedes in the October issue of Pregnancy. “He’s always asking me, ‘Did you put sunscreen on? Does that have caffeine in it? Did you have enough protein today?’”

Playing a dad in Life As We Know It was no tough task for Josh Duhamel.

In fact, the actor says getting to play a father is what “initially drew me to” the role.

“For whatever reason — I don’t know if it is my mom or my dad, but I’ve always had a real fondness for kids,” Duhamel, 37, admitted on the red carpet at the film’s premiere in New York Thursday, adding that he knew playing a dad “would come naturally.”

To get comfortable with the triplets playing the baby in the movie, Duhamel “came in a week early, and would get on the floor with all three of them,” says the movie’s producer Barry Josephson.

Jamie Oliver Says Wife Jools Is ‘In Charge’ of Baby Names

INF

Jamie Oliver has explained who comes up with the unusual names for his kids — his wife, Jools.

Speaking to guest host Sharon Osbourne on ITV 1′s Lorraine, Oliver was asked who dreamt up the name Buddy Bear Maurice for his 2-week-old son.

“That would be my wife,” the chef, 35, replied. “Jools is definitely in charge of the names and we’re probably quite lucky it was a boy really, because we were out of names [for] girls.”

Already dad to daughters Poppy Honey Rosie, 8½, Daisy Boo Pamela, 7, Petal Blossom Rainbow, 18 months, having a boy has taken some getting used to, Oliver admits.

“I’ve only just started calling him ‘him’. For the last two weeks I’ve been saying, ‘Can you pass her to me?’, because it hasn’t quite processed.”
